Backpacking & Outdoor adventures by ChingNengBin - Namaste! Everest BaseCamp 5,364m : 2018 - Perth Holiday Adventure (16-30 October) day 13 visiting Core Cider and Masonmill Gardens

Day 13 (28.10.2018) – After breakfast we went to town to pick up some Indian food for lunch at CORE Cider House, an airy cafe in a brewery with orchard views and a wide-ranging menu sourced from local, organic produce. We later visited a rose farm at Masonmill Gardens situated just 25 minutes from Perth city. Masonmill is set on ten acres of colourful gardens surrounded by the peaceful Jarrah forest of Carmel. On the way back we stopped at Gerard Seah residence for coffee. Dinner was at Good Fortune Roast Duck House.

We all loved the bread for breakfast.

CORE Cider House - We saw a lot of families with their picnic blankets on the green grass and kids running around here and there. This place was definitely perfect for family day out! The view was also beautiful as you'd be able to see rows and rows of lemon, pear and apple orchards.
